I read in the sticky about not getting into large pots (100BB+) without sets or better as a standard line, which makes sense. I lost a huge pot (150BB) last when my bottom two were beaten by a set.

That is THE NUMBER ONE twoplustwo induced leak .... I picked it up back in the day too, but not getting value on your good hands is just BS (even if they are just TPTK, if you are ahead of villians range then you are ahead).


When I talk about playing lots of small pots, it's usually tpnk or my 87s raise hitting 2nd pair etc.

Sometimes pair of twos or even Ace high is good enough to win a big pot. I think I won a couple with K high too (actually calling big river bets with K high).

Gelford, do you mean that the No. 1 2+2 induced leak is losing big pots with less than set/top 2 beause you are trying to extract value too thinly?

[jk1986]

Pretty sure he's saying not building a big pot when you're ahead of villains range (whether you have a top pair or top set) is a huge leak.

I'd guess so from the "cala". Just looking at the picture my range would have been [Spain, (south of) France, Italy, Croatia/Serbia] maybe add Portugal and Greece.
